Banana Republic brown plaid bermuda shorts, size 10



Banana Republic knee-length bermuda shorts in Size 10. These are from Fall 2007. They are brown and tan plaid with a hint of pale blue running through the pattern. The fabric is a medium weight, perfect for fall.

100% cotton. Machine wash cold, tumble dry low.

Measurements (taken flat):
Waist 16 1/4"
Hip 20"
Rise 8 1/4"
Inseam 16 3/4"
Length (side) 24 1/2"

These are in very good condition, with no flaws.

I'm letting these go because they're too big for me.

Asking $6, which includes US shipping. International shipping will probably be a bit more, just ask if you'd like to know how much.

Listing ends: Oct. 4th

Les Prairies de Paris Silk and Cotton Striped Trouser Fabric Shorts US sz 8



This is the other, and last pair of Les Prairies de Paris shorts I purchased forgetting that French size 2 is actually US size 8. These are from La Garconne. Never worn -- I didn't even remove the tags! (slight wrinkles in photos are from boxing them up for the move...)

Hopefully, my spacy-ness will be your gain.

I think these would have been the perfect shorts -- I think they would be too complicated to alter to my size. The fabric is a structured silk/cotton blend that feels lightweight and amazing.

Two front pockets, tab, zip front. Flap pocket in back.

These are meant to sit lower on the waist, on the hip.

Waist: 16 3/4"
Rise: 10"
Length: 11 1/2"
Hip: measured flat across front 18 1/4"

I'm a little depressed about this since I wanted shorts just like these. The search continues...

Paid: $110 from La Garconne (on sale from like $299)
Asking: $42 + 5 shipping ($5 more to Canada)

Listing end: Sept 21 *leave email in comments!

Les Prairies de Paris "tuxedo" Burmuda Shorts US sz 8

This is the second time I've bought Les Prairies de Paris shorts online, on sale, only to receive them and remember that French size 2 actually equals US size 8.

So here I am with some pretty cool, totally unworn bermuda shorts in a dark brown cotton canvas that remain unworn (the wrinkle you see is from folding while in storage.)

(And excuse the "holding-in-front-of-computer-to-take-photo" strategy -- it was too easy to resist.)

The band is satin. There is a rhinestone flower at the hip, which can be removed if you choose. These shorts would look great worn not too tightly, with a pressed shirt.

Two pockets in the front.

Rise 8 1/2"
Length 19"
Waist 30"
Hip 18 1/4" measured lying flat across the front. Measured around is 38"

Paid: $85 from Hejfina from $xxx (can't remember, but this Prairies is so expensive when not on sale.)
Asking: $25 + 5 shipping ($4 more to Canada)

Listing end date: Sept 21. Leave email in comments!
